NOUN Student Handbook
Some Things to Note
Some courses have advisory pre requisites. Pre-requisites are determined to ensure that you have acquired the basic knowledge and skills that you will need to complete a particular course more easily.
The Credit load for each semester has been prescribed under each programme. If for any reason you wish to register for more credit units as prescribed in the programme at any particular semester, you will be required to obtain permission of the dean of your school.
You will not be allowed to register for a course whose prerequisite course you have not been credited with. In most cases, these prerequisites are mandatory and you must complete and pass them before you proceed.
You will also not be allowed to re-register for a course that you have already passed. You may be allowed some credits for courses taken previously from another institution before admission into NOUN. The process of crediting or exemption follows an intricate process to be determined by the specific School Board concerned and the NOUN senate.
Change of course
Applications for change of course that you registered are limited to courses offered in the same semester. You will apply to the Dean using an Add and Drop form, a sample is included on page 195 as in this hand book.
You will pay an administrative fee (See schedule of fees). Application for this should be made as early as possible.

9.0 SCHEDULE OF FEES
The NOUN does not charge tuition Fees. The fees charged per course at mere cost recovery level (and others even charged at a loss to NOUN) are for the development, production and delivery of the instructional materials which may include Print, Audio, Video,
CD ROMs or a web-based multi-media site. However because of the intrinsic nature and values of each course, the courses are not charged uniformly. An undergraduate course has a fee that is lower when compared
